4 Stars weird flavor, good effects
If you can get past the oddly sweet flavor and the powder texture that prevents it from dissolving in anything (it’s a bit like flour), then I think that this product gives good results. I have been adding it to my smoothies, cereal (with soy ‘milk’ vanilla flavor), vanilla yogurt, and occasionally cookies (it’s really fabulous in apple-oatmeal cookies) since June. I notice a difference in energy between days that I do and don’t use it. Of course they also claim that it’s good for hormones, skin, etc, but these things are a bit harder to know for sure. I generally feel great though whenever I start my day with this stuff. Add it to milky substances, especially those that are of vanilla flavor, and experiment with baking. Just don’t try to eat a spoonful. It just sticks like glue to the roof of your mouth…yuk!
3 Stars Its ok
Tastes fine, i didn’t really notice any difference when taking it but i’m sure it is probably healthy. I don’t notice a difference when i take a multivitamin.
4 Stars Best in OJ
Until I realized that the flavor is like unsweetened butterscotch, it was quite off-putting. That said, it still isn’t anything to cheer about, but I’ve tried mixing it with a few things and the best way I’ve found to take it is a rounded (not heaping) spoonful in about ~6oz of orange juice (albeit it doesn’t mix as well as I’d like). I imagine that any citrus beverage would work well.
The single most important thing I’ve learned about this stuff while trying it (and I’m talking to you, one-star reviewers) is that if it tastes too strong mixed with something, *use less*. I’ve also read that if you let it sit in a beverage too long, the flavor will get much stronger.
I don’t notice any improvement in energy until I hop on my bike during my commute home from work. I’m much more zippy on days that I take this than days I don’t.
The -1 star is mostly for the packaging. Went to close the zip-lock top one day only to discover the zip-lock had separated from the bag when I opened it. I ended up putting the remainder in a cleaned out coffee creamer container.
5 Stars Fresh dried Mulberries
I couldn’t get the brand I normally do, so buying these was a concession. However I am so pleased with their mulberries. Although dried, you can tell they are fresh. A lot of flavor. I won’t go back to the other brand I was using.
2 Stars Flavor is BAD!
I’ve tried to mix it with lots of yogurt and and chrushed blueberries. It tastes TERRIBLE. Wish I could return it. I also tried it plain. The flavor is overpowering and not in a good way. Your going to really have to suck it up to get this stuff down.
